From OSC NONRTRIC Control Panel to OSC Near-RT RIC simulator
...
via ONAP A1 Policy Management Service & ONAP A1 Adapter
Preparation
See Build/Run for building and starting the environment instructions on configuring & running the A1 Policy functions.
Perform Policy Operations via Dashboard
Open Dashboard UI at http://localhost:8080/
Click on Policy Control and the screen below with STD_QOS2_0.1.0 policy type should open
Click on '+' icon to create new policy
Choose your ric (ric3 or ric4) from drop-down menu and provide any arbitrary values for QoS Id, Ue Id and Priority
- Submit the policy clicking the Submit button
An entry to the chosen Near-RT RIC simulator console/log should appear (see, for example, docker logs ric3 in case ric3 policy was created):
127.0.0.1 - - [23/Sep/2021 11:58:57] "PUT //A1-P/v2/policytypes/STD_QOS2_0.1.0/policies/c897eabc-82cb-4bac-baa6-a5dbaef71694 HTTP/1.0" 200 -
Other logs can also be checked, for example is A1-Adapter.log that can be found inside sdnc-controller container, path: /opt/opendaylight/data/logs
|Put A1 Policy :|http://ric3:8085//A1-P/v2/policytypes/STD_QOS2_0.1.0/policies/c897eabc-82cb-4bac-baa6-a5dbaef71694|{"qosObjectives":{"priorityLevel":2},"scope":{"qosId":"123","ueId":"234"}}|
|Put A1 Policy: No proxy found on properties file ||Setting variables for Put A1 Policy.|http://ric3:8085//A1-P/v2/policytypes/STD_QOS2_0.1.0/policies/c897eabc-82cb-4bac-baa6-a5dbaef71694|{"qosObjectives":{"priorityLevel":2},"scope":{"qosId":"123","ueId":"234"}}|
You may repeat the creation process a few times for different rics - below we see several policy created to different rics.
Click the pen icon to modify any policy
Modifications are submitted in the same way as in creation, and the resulting simulator log should also be same as the one we saw in creation
